Only Shaquille O'Neal can pull off lip-sync the Temptations hit "Get Ready," bust a few dance moves and look good doing it.

The Big Fella is entertaining after all, so it shouldn't be surprising he pulled that stunt off in TNT's promotional ad for the 2011-2012 NBA season. But it just makes me wonder why he couldn't squeeze in a performance on "Dancing With the Stars" instead of Lakers forward Metta World Peace.
